 .DISCUSSION...
 Very warm and humid conditions will persist throughout the work 
 week. In additional to diurnal showers and storms, an upper level 
 system facilitate more widespread activity today, and then a 
 cold front facilitates more widespread activity on Friday.
 
 Thunderstorms could be heavy, with any repetitiveness over an area 
 elevating the potential for localized flash flooding. The best 
 chance for this is with the system today and Friday. Some 
 thunderstorms can also produce strong wind gusts, but widespread 
 organized severe weather is not expected until Friday, when the 
 cold front approaches.
